Prediagnosis as a young adult kinda

I know it's hard, but please don't FREAK OUT! . You still really don't have a diagnosis yet. Don't immediatedly go to the worst case scenario. You are very young for lung cancer, but see what tests show, in time.
I'm not a doctor but a lung cancer stage 4 patient. I had zero symptoms, but then I got pneumonia and x-rays of the chest showed a "mass". What you may have sounds more gastrointestinal. You are absolutely right about following up, because coughing or vomiting blood is not normal. What do your parents think? I'm praying that whatever you may be experiencing, there is a successful treatment. Once you get a diagnosis, then you can see what steps to take. You are in my thoughts and prayers, hon.

@medtech4 thank you so much for the prayers that’s something I wanted, right now I just live with my mom I haven’t been talking to her about this but she knows I’m worried about cancer, here I think I’m okay and then I have the red flag with of iron deficiency..I stayed at my sisters for a bit during my mental health crisis me and her husband talked, they tell me things like nothing should stop me from doing temporary stuff in my life like coming to their nail shop to help out. they just don’t want to see me like this and they are worried including my aunt. How do you hold up with the diagnosis, I think about the situation of telling my mom if I do have it but Ik you have to wait until a biopsy, I told her once “what happens if I have cancer then what?” my mom is in her 60’s I haven’t started counseling yet. Tried meds didn’t feel like they were working after a month but I was told it takes longer at that window, and a higher dosage.
